What else can I help you with?
Do You need to have water present to see if something is an acid or an alkali.?
no
How can you test for an acid and an alkali?
You would have to look at the nurk of the base and the whapple of the acid and i it is an xx and yy it would distinguish because then it dismanages it but otherwise if it is xy yx then it physicaly can't distinguish experimentally without tasting it.
How do YOU detect the presence of acid or alkali?
Acid can be detected using litmus paper which turns red when exposed to acids, while alkali turns it blue. Electronic pH meters can also be used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
What is the test for an alkali?
One common test for an alkali is using red litmus paper - it will turn blue in the presence of an alkaline substance. Another test is using universal indicator paper, which will show a color change to indicate the presence of an alkali.
How could you test for an acid or alkali?
To test for an acid, you can use pH paper or a pH meter to measure the pH level of a solution. Acids will typically have a pH below 7. To test for an alkali, you can use universal indicator paper which will change color depending on the pH of the solution. Alkalis typically have a pH above 7.
What can tell us whether something is an acid or alkali in 10 letters?
Test the pH.
Do You need to have water present to see if something is an acid or an alkali.?
no
What is an acid test?
An acid test is a rigorous test of the quality or value of something.
How can you test for an acid and an alkali?

How can you tell if its an acid?
Add an alkali substance to it, such as chalk, if it is an acid it will "fizz" and release carbon dioxide. You could also test with Litmus Paper or Universal indicator.

Acid can be detected using litmus paper which turns red when exposed to acids, while alkali turns it blue. Electronic pH meters can also be used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
What do indicators test for?
Indicators are used to test if something for example whether vinegar is an acid or alkali. Due to the pH scale, 1 - 3 is a strong acid, 4 - 6 is a weak acid, 7 is neutral, 8 - 10 is a weak alkali and 11 - 14 is a strong alkali. Vinegar should turn orange when added with an indicator, with the pH of about 3.

One common test for an alkali is using red litmus paper - it will turn blue in the presence of an alkaline substance. Another test is using universal indicator paper, which will show a color change to indicate the presence of an alkali.
How can you test if carbon monoxide is acid or alkali?
You can not test on that, because it is neither acid nor base. it is an 'neutral' gas, hardly soluble in water AND it does NOT react with water! as all acids and bases do. It 'big brother' carbon DIoxide is an acidical (=acid forming) oxide in water.

litmus paper test
